I have wanted this for a while but watching Shimelle use it in her JYC class videos has renewed my desire for this punch. I have searched on-line and can't find it - I can find the punch around the page version but not the regular punch version. Has this been discontinued? I could have sworn I had seen it recently but can't remember where. Any help would be appreciated - this is the circle that looks sort of like a certificate shape not scalloped but sharp points around the outside of the circle.

The MS punch was discontinued quite some time ago. However, I'm pretty sure another company just came out with one, but I can't remember which one. Hopefully I'll remember and can report back. ***eta*** I made a mistake--it isn't a punch that came out, but Paper Smooches has nesting wafer thin dies that are the pinking circles: www.papersmoochesstamps.com/Pinked_Circles_Dies_p/kded-13-107.htm |

It's so frustrating when you find a tool to find out it's discontinued. Here's another alternative if you have a manual die cutter. I have this set and I like it a lot because of the varying sizes and how close the pinking edges are to each other. |

Bummer - I would have sworn I had seen it recently - oh well I was going to put it on my christmas list but I know no one would buy it anyways. I may have to order at some point just not sure I want to spend that much - I like the idea of multiple sizes. Technically though I do have the shape on a cricut cart I just like the ease of using a punch sometimes.
Thanks so much for posting the links.

I also was a bit crazy to find one.. eyed it at Michael's for a long while and of course when I finally decided to buy one, they were all gone. I tried to find a MS one but could not, so ended up with a McGill brand punch that is 99.8% as good as the MS one. I searched on eBay for mine, and there were several to choose from at a decent price.

I will almost swear that I have seen one at Michaels in the last month or so. Hand-held right? I will be up there most likely Friday and will look again.

I saw one by Teresa Collins at Joanne's last night. It is bigger than the MS punch, bigger points. But if you just want a punch, that might do.
SU has a set of pinked circle dies, but you would need a die cut machine. Spellbinders had a set also, but I believe they are discontinued.

This is one of my favorite & most-used punches. Unfortunately, I've not seen it in any stores for a couple of years. I also have & highly recommend the Lifestyle Crafts/QK Nesting Pinking Circle dies, if you have a manual diecut machine. Best wishes with your search! |

I think Shimelle mentioned a while back on one of her GG videos that she gets the question a lot about that punch, and they are discontinued. I'm surprised, since it's such a versatile shape I'd think that would continue to be remade a lot.

I thought I found one at Michael's and am sure this is what I saw a month or so ago it is a small scallop punch the point are smaller than most others. so off to Joann's and I am a happy camper I bought the Theresa Collins one it doesn't seem real big but I think it will work great. I also found another punch with the three labels that I wanted. Both were on sale along with a few other embellishments for my December album and some cool glitter paper that was 60% off so I am a happy camper. I have to say the Joann's here is so much nicer and the people that work here are so much nicer than my old store (we moved). I never understood why anyone would go to a Joann's until I moved here. It is hit or miss some days I find a ton of stuff others nothing but the last couple of trips have been great and they were getting a lot of new products in.

Avery Elle has a nice set of pinked circle nesting dies too, and they're $8 at Joann because of the sale right now. It's not a punch, but it's cheap.  www.joann.com/elle-ments-dies-signature/13998125.htmlPinked circles are my favorite too. I blame October Afternoon's old flower sacks. I just loved those. |

No it has been discontinued and it is just a regular punch. I found a similar punch that is Teresa Collins - well the points aren't as small but it will work for what I want. I have also added some dies to my wishlist. Thanks so much. The anywhere punch looks like it is the closest to the original but just looks hard to use - trying to match up the two pieces.
Thanks for trying to find the punch and posting alternatives. Gotta love the Peas.

Just in case anyone else was interested - the MS anywhere pinkes circle punch a notched corner on the base and top, and the magnets are installed so that the two parts will only line up one way... The magnets are strong too - keeps everything aligned with thicker, heavy cardstock... |

I thought I had all I needed but now I want the EK success punch I just love the ease of using punches with scraps - I guess I will add it to my amazon wishlist and whatever happens happens.

I have that one too. The TC punch is much smaller then the EK Success punch. They have two very different looks.

Thanks for the heads up about the TC punch. I found a fairly good deal on ebay and it will work for my purposes. Now if my label punch from Joann's will ever arrive. How is it that their shipping is so tragically slow - ALWAYS?

I thought I'd post a link to a set of pinked circle dies that are on sale this week. I personally have this set and absolutely love them. If you are still looking for something like this you won't be disappointed...great price! |
